Duh! Part Deux

Op-Ed Columnist - A Moderate Manifesto - NYTimes.com:
"Those of us who consider ourselves moderates — moderate-conservative, in my case — are forced to confront the reality that Barack Obama is not who we thought he was. His words are responsible; his character is inspiring. But his actions betray a transformational liberalism that should put every centrist on notice. As Clive Crook, an Obama admirer, wrote in The Financial Times, the Obama budget “contains no trace of compromise. It makes no gesture, however small, however costless to its larger agenda, of a bipartisan approach to the great questions it addresses. It is a liberal’s dream of a new New Deal.”"


OK. Barrack Obama said he was going to "transform" America. He had the the VERY most liberal voting record in the Senate. He was the darling of George Soros and MoveOn.org. What about Obama's campaign led David Brooks to expect Barack Obama was a centrist?
